Houseplants For Dummies
Basking in the Light
Adapted From: Houseplants For Dummies

Despite countless plant labels that state otherwise, there is no such thing as a low-light houseplant. All indoor plants prefer good light at all times. Low-light plants are simply those that can tolerate lower light intensities without suffering too visibly. In the long run, though, keeping any plant alive under low light is a difficult proposition. Don't forget to move foliage plants to brighter light every few weeks if they're in a room with poor lighting conditions. You can keep them going for years if you give them at least two weeks' worth of good conditions per month.
